Audit

The parking spaces at the narrow section of Walnut Tree Close should be reviewed as there is

a problem with traffic gridlock during peak times

Not relevant to scheme None

Application includes modelling of

gyratory

TDP to present a

summary of the

impact with the formal

response

The two suggested bdquomitigating‟ schemes for the gyratory the widening of the exit from Walnut

Tree Close and of the right turn from Bridge St (towards the south) will have

very limited effect on capacity whilst increasing risks to pedestrians and increasing the

likelihood of lane-changing collisions Contrary to the MB document there is indeed an accident

problem in Walnut Tree Close if not of the scale of the gyratory itself The

Station Square General arrangement appears to show two zebra () crossings either side of

the vehicle entry exit Given the existing pelican the volume and nature of

pedestrian traffic the existing accident problem would be better mitigated by raised two pedex

crossings

Walnut Tree Close Junction ndash See 1

above No loss of or impact on

pedestrian provision

Applicant to check and

Applicant to confirm proposed works as part of the development

Road Safety

It is difficult to make comment on the Station redevelopment proposal in isolation There is

a proposal to close Walnut Tree Close which would clearly affect traffic

conditions Similarly development LEP and major scheme monies are earmarked for various

locations in the vicinity of the station ndash these include schemes for the gyratory itself

Woodbridge Road and Middleton Rd The appropriate mitigation measures for

the station redevelopment will depend on the progress of other schemes ndash the traffic effects

are interdependent

Hi

I am part of the consultation team for the Guildford Project and attended a scheme briefing and Secured by Design review workshop in Aug 2014 where the following was agreed

All agreed the workshop had been very useful and there were no key issues that required addressing before application would be submitted

Post planning approval (anticipated Jan 15) a series of meetings would be arranged to develop the design in line with best practice

Should contact be required in the meantime they should contact the PM xxxx ndash macegroupcom ndash

No subsequent meeting has taken place this year to date so the above statement stands subject to the condition that safety and security of the railway is paramount and never compromised

Thank you for sending Passenger Focus details of the proposal to dispose of property In Guildford and for the replies sent in reply to issues raised They note it is part of a large redevelopment of the east side of the station and that

the land along the east side of the railway station comprises the main station building other railway buildings station car parking other parking leased to Surrey CC and access to other land the disposal is proposed to be by 250 year lease(s) to Solum Regeneration the intention is to redevelop the land as a ldquomixed userdquo scheme which will provide a new station building with larger public areas a multi-storey car park new public spaces and improved forecourt commercial retail and residential development planning approval is currently expected sometime in the summer of 2015

Network Rail will retain freehold ownership of operational land and necessary access

Passenger Focus also notes that

xxxx has met with you regarding specific aspects of what the scheme will mean for passengers at the station Passenger Focus looks forward to representing passengers as the development progresses xxxx SWT‟s stakeholder manager has been in touch regarding dispensation for various features of the car parking

The parking spaces at the narrow section of Walnut Tree Close should be reviewed as there is

a problem with traffic gridlock during peak times

Not relevant to scheme None

Application includes modelling of

gyratory

TDP to present a

summary of the

impact with the formal

response

The two suggested bdquomitigating‟ schemes for the gyratory the widening of the exit from Walnut

Tree Close and of the right turn from Bridge St (towards the south) will have

very limited effect on capacity whilst increasing risks to pedestrians and increasing the

likelihood of lane-changing collisions Contrary to the MB document there is indeed an accident

problem in Walnut Tree Close if not of the scale of the gyratory itself The

Station Square General arrangement appears to show two zebra () crossings either side of

the vehicle entry exit Given the existing pelican the volume and nature of

pedestrian traffic the existing accident problem would be better mitigated by raised two pedex

crossings

Walnut Tree Close Junction ndash See 1

above No loss of or impact on

It is difficult to make comment on the Station redevelopment proposal in isolation There is

a proposal to close Walnut Tree Close which would clearly affect traffic

conditions Similarly development LEP and major scheme monies are earmarked for various

locations in the vicinity of the station ndash these include schemes for the gyratory itself

Woodbridge Road and Middleton Rd The appropriate mitigation measures for

the station redevelopment will depend on the progress of other schemes ndash the traffic effects

are interdependent

Hi

I am part of the consultation team for the Guildford Project and attended a scheme briefing and Secured by Design review workshop in Aug 2014 where the following was agreed

All agreed the workshop had been very useful and there were no key issues that required addressing before application would be submitted

Post planning approval (anticipated Jan 15) a series of meetings would be arranged to develop the design in line with best practice

Should contact be required in the meantime they should contact the PM xxxx ndash macegroupcom ndash

No subsequent meeting has taken place this year to date so the above statement stands subject to the condition that safety and security of the railway is paramount and never compromised

Thank you for sending Passenger Focus details of the proposal to dispose of property In Guildford and for the replies sent in reply to issues raised They note it is part of a large redevelopment of the east side of the station and that

the land along the east side of the railway station comprises the main station building other railway buildings station car parking other parking leased to Surrey CC and access to other land the disposal is proposed to be by 250 year lease(s) to Solum Regeneration the intention is to redevelop the land as a ldquomixed userdquo scheme which will provide a new station building with larger public areas a multi-storey car park new public spaces and improved forecourt commercial retail and residential development planning approval is currently expected sometime in the summer of 2015

Network Rail will retain freehold ownership of operational land and necessary access

Passenger Focus also notes that

access to the existing booking hall will be maintained until the new one is ready for use the station change process will be used for the temporary arrangements required during the development a station change and minor modification will be issued for the alteration to the station lease that the redevelopment will require

xxxx has met with you regarding specific aspects of what the scheme will mean for passengers at the station Passenger Focus looks forward to representing passengers as the development progresses xxxx SWT‟s stakeholder manager has been in touch regarding dispensation for various features of the car parking

Considering only the land disposal Passenger Focus has no objection

The two suggested bdquomitigating‟ schemes for the gyratory the widening of the exit from Walnut

very limited effect on capacity whilst increasing risks to pedestrians and increasing the

likelihood of lane-changing collisions Contrary to the MB document there is indeed an accident

problem in Walnut Tree Close if not of the scale of the gyratory itself The

Station Square General arrangement appears to show two zebra () crossings either side of

Thank you for sending Passenger Focus details of the proposal to dispose of property In Guildford and for the replies sent in reply to issues raised They note it is part of a large redevelopment of the east side of the station and that

the land along the east side of the railway station comprises the main station building other railway buildings station car parking other parking leased to Surrey CC and access to other land the disposal is proposed to be by 250 year lease(s) to Solum Regeneration the intention is to redevelop the land as a ldquomixed userdquo scheme which will provide a new station building with larger public areas a multi-storey car park new public spaces and improved forecourt commercial retail and residential development planning approval is currently expected sometime in the summer of 2015

Network Rail will retain freehold ownership of operational land and necessary access

Passenger Focus also notes that

access to the existing booking hall will be maintained until the new one is ready for use the station change process will be used for the temporary arrangements required during the development a station change and minor modification will be issued for the alteration to the station lease that the redevelopment will require

xxxx has met with you regarding specific aspects of what the scheme will mean for passengers at the station Passenger Focus looks forward to representing passengers as the development progresses xxxx SWT‟s stakeholder manager has been in touch regarding dispensation for various features of the car parking

Considering only the land disposal Passenger Focus has no objection

Land disposal consultation report V 11 The junction of Walnut Tree Close and Bridge Street should be improved Proposal identified by Developer Applicant to check

and respond to RSA

Audit

The parking spaces at the narrow section of Walnut Tree Close should be reviewed as there is

a problem with traffic gridlock during peak times

Not relevant to scheme None

Application includes modelling of

gyratory

TDP to present a

summary of the

impact with the formal

response

The two suggested bdquomitigating‟ schemes for the gyratory the widening of the exit from Walnut

Tree Close and of the right turn from Bridge St (towards the south) will have

very limited effect on capacity whilst increasing risks to pedestrians and increasing the

likelihood of lane-changing collisions Contrary to the MB document there is indeed an accident

problem in Walnut Tree Close if not of the scale of the gyratory itself The

Station Square General arrangement appears to show two zebra () crossings either side of

the vehicle entry exit Given the existing pelican the volume and nature of

pedestrian traffic the existing accident problem would be better mitigated by raised two pedex

crossings

Walnut Tree Close Junction ndash See 1

above No loss of or impact on

pedestrian provision

Applicant to confirm proposed works as part of the development

Road Safety

It is difficult to make comment on the Station redevelopment proposal in isolation There is

a proposal to close Walnut Tree Close which would clearly affect traffic

conditions Similarly development LEP and major scheme monies are earmarked for various

locations in the vicinity of the station ndash these include schemes for the gyratory itself

Woodbridge Road and Middleton Rd The appropriate mitigation measures for

the station redevelopment will depend on the progress of other schemes ndash the traffic effects

are interdependent

Hi

I am part of the consultation team for the Guildford Project and attended a scheme briefing and Secured by Design review workshop in Aug 2014 where the following was agreed

All agreed the workshop had been very useful and there were no key issues that required addressing before application would be submitted

Post planning approval (anticipated Jan 15) a series of meetings would be arranged to develop the design in line with best practice

Should contact be required in the meantime they should contact the PM xxxx ndash macegroupcom ndash

No subsequent meeting has taken place this year to date so the above statement stands subject to the condition that safety and security of the railway is paramount and never compromised

Land disposal consultation report V 11 The junction of Walnut Tree Close and Bridge Street should be improved Proposal identified by Developer Applicant to check

and respond to RSA

Audit

The parking spaces at the narrow section of Walnut Tree Close should be reviewed as there is

a problem with traffic gridlock during peak times

Not relevant to scheme None

Application includes modelling of

gyratory

TDP to present a

summary of the

impact with the formal

response

The two suggested bdquomitigating‟ schemes for the gyratory the widening of the exit from Walnut

Tree Close and of the right turn from Bridge St (towards the south) will have

very limited effect on capacity whilst increasing risks to pedestrians and increasing the

likelihood of lane-changing collisions Contrary to the MB document there is indeed an accident

problem in Walnut Tree Close if not of the scale of the gyratory itself The

Station Square General arrangement appears to show two zebra () crossings either side of

the vehicle entry exit Given the existing pelican the volume and nature of

pedestrian traffic the existing accident problem would be better mitigated by raised two pedex

crossings

conditions Similarly development LEP and major scheme monies are earmarked for various

locations in the vicinity of the station ndash these include schemes for the gyratory itself

Woodbridge Road and Middleton Rd The appropriate mitigation measures for

the station redevelopment will depend on the progress of other schemes ndash the traffic effects

Hi

I am part of the consultation team for the Guildford Project and attended a scheme briefing and Secured by Design review workshop in Aug 2014 where the following was agreed

All agreed the workshop had been very useful and there were no key issues that required addressing before application would be submitted

Post planning approval (anticipated Jan 15) a series of meetings would be arranged to develop the design in line with best practice

Should contact be required in the meantime they should contact the PM xxxx ndash macegroupcom ndash

No subsequent meeting has taken place this year to date so the above statement stands subject to the condition that safety and security of the railway is paramount and never compromised

25 Passenger Focus

Thank you for sending Passenger Focus details of the proposal to dispose of property In Guildford and for the replies sent in reply to issues raised They note it is part of a large redevelopment of the east side of the station and that

the land along the east side of the railway station comprises the main station building other railway buildings station car parking other parking leased to Surrey CC and access to other land the disposal is proposed to be by 250 year lease(s) to Solum Regeneration the intention is to redevelop the land as a ldquomixed userdquo scheme which will provide a new station building with larger public areas a multi-storey car park new public spaces and improved forecourt commercial retail and residential development planning approval is currently expected sometime in the summer of 2015

Network Rail will retain freehold ownership of operational land and necessary access

Passenger Focus also notes that

access to the existing booking hall will be maintained until the new one is ready for use the station change process will be used for the temporary arrangements required during the development a station change and minor modification will be issued for the alteration to the station lease that the redevelopment will require

xxxx has met with you regarding specific aspects of what the scheme will mean for passengers at the station Passenger Focus looks forward to representing passengers as the development progresses xxxx SWT‟s stakeholder manager has been in touch regarding dispensation for various features of the car parking

Considering only the land disposal Passenger Focus has no objection

Post planning approval (anticipated Jan 15) a series of meetings would be arranged to develop the design in line with best practice

Should contact be required in the meantime they should contact the PM xxxx ndash macegroupcom ndash

No subsequent meeting has taken place this year to date so the above statement stands subject to the condition that safety and security of the railway is paramount and never compromised

Dear

Guildford - Land Disposal Process

Further to our conversation I confirm that we are able to offer our conditional approval to the land disposal proposed We support the principle of the Solum Development and will continue to work with the development team to ensure our operational railways concerns are duly considered

Our conditional approval is given on the assumption that the land will not be formally disposed of until South Western Trains Ltd has received and given its specific approval to the appropriate Station Change documentation which should include any relevant commercial arrangements

Please contact either myself or xxxx directly if you require any further clarification

The two suggested bdquomitigating‟ schemes for the gyratory the widening of the exit from Walnut

Tree Close and of the right turn from Bridge St (towards the south) will have

very limited effect on capacity whilst increasing risks to pedestrians and increasing the

likelihood of lane-changing collisions Contrary to the MB document there is indeed an accident

problem in Walnut Tree Close if not of the scale of the gyratory itself The

Station Square General arrangement appears to show two zebra () crossings either side of

the vehicle entry exit Given the existing pelican the volume and nature of

Hi

I am part of the consultation team for the Guildford Project and attended a scheme briefing and Secured by Design review workshop in Aug 2014 where the following was agreed

All agreed the workshop had been very useful and there were no key issues that required addressing before application would be submitted

Post planning approval (anticipated Jan 15) a series of meetings would be arranged to develop the design in line with best practice

Should contact be required in the meantime they should contact the PM xxxx ndash macegroupcom ndash

No subsequent meeting has taken place this year to date so the above statement stands subject to the condition that safety and security of the railway is paramount and never compromised

Land disposal consultation report V 11

Hi

I am part of the consultation team for the Guildford Project and attended a scheme briefing and Secured by Design review workshop in Aug 2014 where the following was agreed

All agreed the workshop had been very useful and there were no key issues that required addressing before application would be submitted

Post planning approval (anticipated Jan 15) a series of meetings would be arranged to develop the design in line with best practice

Should contact be required in the meantime they should contact the PM xxxx ndash macegroupcom ndash

No subsequent meeting has taken place this year to date so the above statement stands subject to the condition that safety and security of the railway is paramount and never compromised

Land disposal consultation report V 11 The junction of Walnut Tree Close and Bridge Street should be improved Proposal identified by Developer Applicant to check

and respond to RSA

Audit

The parking spaces at the narrow section of Walnut Tree Close should be reviewed as there is

a problem with traffic gridlock during peak times

Not relevant to scheme None

Application includes modelling of

gyratory

TDP to present a

summary of the

impact with the formal

response

The two suggested bdquomitigating‟ schemes for the gyratory the widening of the exit from Walnut

Tree Close and of the right turn from Bridge St (towards the south) will have

very limited effect on capacity whilst increasing risks to pedestrians and increasing the

likelihood of lane-changing collisions Contrary to the MB document there is indeed an accident

problem in Walnut Tree Close if not of the scale of the gyratory itself The

Station Square General arrangement appears to show two zebra () crossings either side of

the vehicle entry exit Given the existing pelican the volume and nature of

pedestrian traffic the existing accident problem would be better mitigated by raised two pedex

crossings

Walnut Tree Close Junction ndash See 1

above No loss of or impact on

pedestrian provision

Raised table across forecourt to be sought Use of two controlled crossing to be considered

Applicant to check and

respond to RSA

Applicant to check and

respond to RSA

Applicant to confirm proposed works as part of the development

Road Safety

It is difficult to make comment on the Station redevelopment proposal in isolation There is

a proposal to close Walnut Tree Close which would clearly affect traffic

conditions Similarly development LEP and major scheme monies are earmarked for various

locations in the vicinity of the station ndash these include schemes for the gyratory itself

Woodbridge Road and Middleton Rd The appropriate mitigation measures for

the station redevelopment will depend on the progress of other schemes ndash the traffic effects

are interdependent

Land disposal consultation report V 11

Hi

I am part of the consultation team for the Guildford Project and attended a scheme briefing and Secured by Design review workshop in Aug 2014 where the following was agreed

All agreed the workshop had been very useful and there were no key issues that required addressing before application would be submitted

Post planning approval (anticipated Jan 15) a series of meetings would be arranged to develop the design in line with best practice

Should contact be required in the meantime they should contact the PM xxxx ndash macegroupcom ndash

No subsequent meeting has taken place this year to date so the above statement stands subject to the condition that safety and security of the railway is paramount and never compromised
